*In Chinese literature and poetry, wild geese are spiritual symbols of marital bliss and partnership. They are also symbols of loyalty, integrity, and love. Chinese geese are considered by many to be the most graceful and beautiful member of the goose family. They are sometimes called “Swan Geese” because of their long and graceful necks. They are believed to have originated in China and are descended from the wild swan geese that are native to Asia. less
